tives of the trans continental rail-
way lines, to day, finished their

strict explanation of the new Cullom-
Reagan law and another tariff designed
TO meet the Canadian Pacific and water
competition. Phe first will be put into
effect at once, It advances present rates
80 per cent. The attorneys of the sew
eral roads are instructed to present the
other tariff to the interstate commits
sioners when appointed, and ask that
the tranS-Continental roads lie allowed
to ADOPT it, the claim being made that
the rule strict V complying with the law
will drive the railroad out of through
business.
By instructions from the eastern
trunk lines. the central traffic associa-
ton railroads are taking vote, on a
proposition to continue the present live
stock and dressed-beef rate under the
new tariffs ard classidcations, and to
reduce the rate on dressed mutton from
Chicago to New York from cents to IS
cents a hundred. The vote, it is ascer-
tanned to-day, will be largely in favor
of the proposition.
The managers of the Western States
Passenger Association met to-day, TO
take up the report of the passenger

ness. Much of the time was given to

a Feline adopts a Litter of Rats


Joseph Messenger, a well-known
farmer, who enjoys a reputation for
truthfuIness, credits the following story
told of his cat, which is famous IN the
neigh borhoOd where he resides Tor re-
cord as successful ratter and monser:
A few days ago, as Messenger entered
mis- barn, he-saw a big rat jump out OF
barrel and scamper away, The farmer
looked IN the barrel anu saw six young
rats, which, were unable TO get out. He
went and brought his famous rat killing
cat and put her in the barrel, as the
quickest way of Kidding the premises OF
the six incipient pests. To his great
surprise she did not make short thrift
of them, but op the contrary took the
rat family under her protection and
treated them with as much censIder2-
ton and affection as though they had
been litter of her own.
The news OF this remarkable whIm on
the part of the Messenger rat destroyer
soon spread TO the ghbors, and they
flocked to the barn TO see the cunou5
spectacle. The constant appearance OF
strangers at the barrel evidently alarmed
the cat for the safety of her porteges fof
the began to carry them in her mouth,
as she might her kittens, TO a place OF
greater seclusion and safety. AZ this
point the farmer drew the line. ana
slaughtered the cats family OF ratings,
much TO her apparent grief.-Aitoona

The Now Cruisers.

WASHINGTON, q. c., March 16.-ChIei
Constructor Wilson has received tel
sgram from Naval Constructor Steele,
a Chester, Pa, stating that work is
again progressing on the Chicago. The
naval officers generally are much
pleased with the opinion given by the
Attorney General that the cruiser can
be completed with the balance of the
general appropriations. Notwithstand-
ing the fact that numDer OF
NEW INVENTIONS AND APPLIANCES
not contem plated in the scheme of the
advisory board have been placed on the
cruisers the department is confident
that they can be completed at the cost
within the estimates. 1t is believed that
the total cost of finishing the engineer
ing work on the Chicago will be SAG, 900
less than the estimates; and in the case
of the Boston and atlanta SIS 900 and
SIS, 900 respectively. The figures include
the cost of the new appliances
above referred to, such as ice
machines, separators and electric light
plants. The Boston, now at New York,
is being fitted with ice machines,
electric lights and steam separators,
and Will be
READY FOR HER TRIAL TRIP
within few weeks. The Chicago is not
as far advanced towards completion as
the other cruisers. but her engines have
been practically finished, and only a
small amount OF constructed iron work
remains TO be done. She will be re-
moved from Chester to the New York
navy yard next week. Owing to the
GOOD RESULTS OBTAINED
at her recent dock trial, the engineer
ing bureau feel that the vessel
is already an assured success.
Particular qualification is expressed
at the new performance of the new
beam engines, which were regarded as
purely experimental and of somewhat
doubtful expedieney. Contrary to ex-
pectaion, they ran very smoothly and
gave rise to very little vibration. Little
of the trouble experienced with the
AtiantG and Boston, in securing an air
tight tire-room was encountered in the
case of the Chicago, but an excellent
forced draft was easily produced, and
altogether it is believed that she will be
much the best ship Of the three new
cruisers.

An lnterview with Carlyle.


One day in September, 1870, two
Edinburgh gentlemen travelled togeth-
er in the train to LOngniddry. One of
them had recently returned from con-
tinental tour, and, in passing through
Hanover, had seen the King of Prussia
NOW Emperor'of Germany and Bis
marck az route to the battle-fields.
While recounting some Of his ex-
periences to his friend he noticed in
one Of the corners of the compartment
an old man, rather negligently
apparelled, and with his face so mufiled
up in huge comforter that he saw
little more than his eyes, who he felt
,ure was Thomas Carlyle. His friend,
who, like himself, had only once seen
the "Chelsea sage" (when he delivered
MS inaugural address as Lord Rector
Of Edinburgh University in 1863, was
.atisfied that lie was correct in his con-
lecture, and urged him to address the
philosopher. Well aware of the risk he
incurred in attempting to interview "
50 great a celebrity, he screwed up his
courage, and gradually altered his po-
sition until he was CiS-0-UtS to the
old gentleman. In the blandest tones
he was able to command. he apologized
for the liberty he took al addressing
him, adding that he believed he aud
hisfriend had the honor of being in the
company of Mr.. Carlyle. my name
is Carlyle, was the brusque and imme-
date reply and, after a short pause,
he said 81 have been listening with
great interest to your account of your
recent visit to Germany" Inter ala,
he proceeded 10 allude, in very dis
paraging terms, to the Emperor
Of the French, asserting, as ms
firm belief, that he was not the
nephew of the great Napoleon; and
adding, that "of course man who had
lived all his life on false pretences must
ultimately go-where all such men In
variably find themselves-to the devil"
He then referred to number OF lnte-
resting historical occurrences, justify
ING, as his hearers anticipated, the con-
duct of Prussia on almost every occa-
sion. Speaking of the annexation OF
Schleswig Holstein, he sententous-
Nv said: "When sherlff-otfi-
Ger executes warrant, he sim
ply obeys his orders. In the case
of Schleswig- Holstein, Prussia merely
did what she was told to do 10y the great
Powers One of the gentlemen left
the train at Longniddry, while the
other accompanied Carlyle TO Hadding
ton, and was met at the station by the
late Mr.. Ross, one of the ministers OF
the parish, and there parted with the
philosopher. In the course of the al
ternoon, accompanied by Mr.. Ross, he
went to the Lampof Lothian, where
they ascertained from the sexton that,
in accordance with his usual practice,
Carlyle had paid pious visit to his
wife's grave. Not many hours after
wards telegram was received in Edin-
burg announcing Louis Napoleon's sur
render.
